This is part of MM 500 Mechanical Engineering Test Series which provides sets for various experiments on MM 500-001 Basic Panel (separately supplied) to study or demonstrate specific engineering principles. The set is supplied in plastics box.

Two parts beams with scale for bending moment and two parts beam with scale for shear force test with beam supports are used. Loading is by load hangers and weights. Bending moment and shear force are calculated from spring balance readings, location of loads and weights.
